Arrivano i barbari. Le guerre persiane tra poesia e memoria
br. Nella memoria collettiva degli antichi, come nella memoria riflessa dei moderni, le grandi vittorie ottenute dai Greci a Maratona, alle Termopili e a Salamina hanno assunto un enorme valore simbolico. I 300 Spartani che, seppur vinti, riescono a sconfiggere i vincitori. I nemici storici, Sparta e Atene, che si alleano in nome di un bene superiore. Ma soprattutto i barbari, i nemici della libertà e della civiltà, che si infrangono di fronte alla resistenza di una minoranza unita e determinata a difendere i propri diritti. La narrazione e la celebrazione, in esaltanti scritture poetiche, delle epiche gesta della confederazione ellenica contro la soverchiante armata di terra e di mare approntata dal Gran Re Serse hanno fornito una serie di topoi letterari che hanno influenzato e continuano a influenzare il nostro immaginario. Tanto da costituire un patrimonio che riemerge costantemente ogniqualvolta la storia lo richieda: da Lepanto a Nelson vincitore a Trafalgar, dai testi incendiari del nostro Risorgimento fino alle canzoni della Resistenza. Un libro appassionato e divertente, alla riscoperta dei mille fili che ci legano al nostro passato più remoto.

Giulia La Figlia Di Augusto
8vo br., pp. 256. (Storia e società). "Giulia fu una donna spiritosa, brillante, estroversa, sicuramente affascinante, conscia del suo ruolo e del suo peso sociale, che aspirava a conquistarsi sempre e comunque un proprio spazio nel quale, civettando, primeggiare: dalla frequentazione dei cenacoli letterari a quella dei circoli politici, dai salotti della ribellione generazionale a quelli, più insidiosi, della sotterranea opposizione al regime e al sistema. Tutto le era permesso, e dovunque si muovesse la seguiva un folto stuolo di corteggiatori che ne stimolava l'orgoglio e ne suscitava la vanità. Contestatrice del padre e del suo ipocrita mondo di valori, non si accorse in tempo del baratro in cui sprofondava, giorno dopo giorno, spostandosi da posizioni di fronda a quelle di aperta congiura. Molla ne fu sempre il suo spirito provocatorio e l'impulso al ruolo di prima donna": dal primo accordo di matrimonio stipulato dal padre quando la bimba aveva due anni alla morte, forse casualmente, anche del padre nello stesso anno, il volume ricostruisce l'affascinante vita di una donna discussa e criticata dai suoi contemporanei e forse musa ispiratrice di poeti e bizzarre situazioni dentro la sua corte. È lei Corinna, la donna cantata da Ovidio negli "Amores"? Perché era così affascinata dall'Egitto? Gusto dell'esotico o fatale attrazione verso forme ellenistiche di potere e dispotismo? Quale la natura del rapporto antagonistico tra lei e Livia, la terza moglie di Augusto?

Sulle rotte di Ulisse. L'invenzione della geografia omerica
br. Furono gli Eubei di Calcide e di Eretria i più antichi esploratori delle rotte mediterranee; marinai, mercanti, coloni, che, procedendo da oriente verso occidente, si spinsero fino alle acque degli empori atlantici, superando, presso Gibilterra, le mitiche colonne di Ercole. Il volume si sofferma sul mondo della grecità arcaica, su quella memoria dell'Odissea che è nella 'bisaccia' di ogni navigante e poi colono. Il dato davvero più rilevante è constatare che la codificazione della geografia dell'Odissea è definitivamente compiuta, e su più scenari mediterranei, già nella seconda metà delI'VIII secolo a.C., poco prima dell'Odissea, nella stagione cioè - con Cuma e con Naxos - delle prime fondazioni coloniali elleniche sia in Italia sia in Sicilia. Tale codificazione resterà sostanzialmente immobile fino alla tarda età ellenistica, quando i Romani, vinta Cartagine, si proietteranno su rotte atlantiche, qui nuovamente riciclando l'eterna leggenda dell'eroe navigatore.

Bisanzio Prima Di Bisanzio. Miti e Fondazioni Della Nuova Roma
8vo, br. ed. br., pp. 182, cm 15x20. (Piccoli Saggi. 65). L'undici maggio del 330 Costantino fondò la sua Nuova Roma, meglio nota come Costantinopoli. Il sito della nuova capitale, tuttavia, aveva già una storia lunghissima, che iniziava dalla preistoria e proseguiva con la colonia megarese di Bisanzio, cruciale emporio sul Bosforo e inespugnabile avamposto contro i barbari. Il corpus arcaico di miti e leggende che circondava quest'antico insediamento, di cui i testi antichi ci hanno conservato tracce preziose, si trovò all'improvviso proiettato su un palcoscenico mondiale: retori, poeti, storici fecero a gara nel nobilitare queste tradizioni e nel costruire, nel passato di Bisanzio, una serie impressionante di presagi della futura grandezza. La propaganda imperiale trasformò così l'eroe fondatore Bisante, nipote di Zeus, in un nuovo Romolo, e la dea Ecate, protettrice della città negli assedi, sembrò anticipare il ruolo che sarebbe stato attribuito alla Vergine. E allo stesso tempo, gli antichi monumenti che rimanevano di questo passato remoto furono avvolti da leggende che li dipingevano come talismani incantati dalla magia degli antichi sapienti. Quando i Turchi infine conquistarono Costantinopoli, nel 1453, ereditarono e rielaborarono ulteriormente questo patrimonio di miti, ipotizzando una serie vertiginosa di fondazioni e rifondazioni che iniziava con Salomone per culminare nella nascita di Istanbul. In queste pagine viene rievocata questa "storia leggendaria" di Bisanzio, una costruzione culturale che è in corso ancora oggi.
